We said we`d walk together baby come what may
There come the twilight should we lose our way
If as we`re walking hands should slip free
I`ll wait for you
Should I fall behind wait for me
We swore we`d travel darling side by side
And we`d help each other stay in stride
Each lover`s steps fall so differently
So I`ll wait for you
Should I fall behind wait for me
Everyone dreams of love lasting and true
But you and I know what this world can do
Let`s make our steps clear that the other may see
And I`ll wait for you
Should I fall behind wait for me
Now there`s a beautiful river in the valley ahead
And there `neath the oak`s bough soon we`ll be wed
Should we lose each other in the shadow of the evening trees
I`ll wait for you
Should I fall behind wait for me
Darling I`ll wait for you
Should I fall behind wait for me
Darling I`ll wait for you
